I hadn't actually held one of these until today and upon handling it for a few minutes decided to buy it

I damn near bought one of these

I've had a spyderco delica for about 2 years and have yet to need to sharpen it and I could still shave with it if I wanted

The Ka-Bar was just over $60 after tax......... the Spyderco Civilian in the second pic was $239.99+tax.

Shoot, i've got a custom spyderco shabaria as well as a spyderco spyderfly for sale on here.  Sweet knives, but one's illegal here in Cali land.  Not that it stops me or anything.  I just got a CRKT badger as well as a Byrd by spyderco which for a cheapo box knife works great to thrash on at work.  I figured it was gonna be junk, but its made really well in reality.

Here is the spyderco shabaria, and the spyderfly is a spyderco made butterfly with 440c steel.  its decent for a balisong.  I'd let them go cheap if anyone offers!


(mine is partial serrated and swept forward with a reverse tanto blade now, it was definitely modified.

The only CRKT I've ever owned was a M16 and I loved that little knife, I still have no idea what happened to it :icon_confused: 

I've heard there was a limited run of serrated shabaria's made.  I'm shooting you a PM.

This is the worst part which is just the anodization is wearing off of the clip, but it still works and snaps.  The tip is a hair miscolored from them grinding on it.   Serration is sharper than crap, and the blade can be sharpened pretty easily and its vg-10 which is really freakin hard.

BTW, sorry for the crapy pics, but its off a 2mp camera phone.

VG10 is great, and usually sharpens right up with a good diamond sharpening set up.  Whoever did that to the blade should be kicked in the face, but I'm still kinda interested in it.  Shoot me a PM with a price.

bombadillo

Eh throw a price at me and we'll talk.  I put it up for 99 on the shabaria or spyderco boards whatever they were.  I'd give it to you cheaper than that shipped.  Say 75 shipped??

That works, it'll be monday or tuesday.  I had to order a new credit card, I accidentally set it down on one of those stupid little security deactivator things at wal-mart :icon_rolleyes: and I know my pay pal doesn't have that much in it.

the discoloration on the Ontario is sheet rock that refuses to come off :icon_rolleyes:
